Climate change is driving more frequent and severe weather, making accurate forecasting more critical than ever.  

In this webinar, we will explore how modern solid-state weather radars, advanced signal processing, and next-generation software work together as an integrated system to deliver higher data quality, better availability, and more actionable insight for weather-critical operations.

What will we cover

  • How solid-state weather radars with compact design improve sensitivity, range, and reliability while reducing lifecycle costs and maintenance needs.
  • How advanced signal processing – including enhanced reflectivity, hybrid pulsing, continuous runtime calibration, and extremely long pulses – maximizes data quality from near range to long range.
  • How IRIS Focus software, integrating multisensor data (radar, lidar, lightning, satellite), and nowcasting capabilities turn observations into better forecasts, warnings, and operational decisions across meteorology, aviation, hydrology, and urban resilience use cases.
